Damn that was long...

In the middle of trying to create a semi-final image for the background of the options screen...

Donut tabehōdai at Mr. Donut: 2,000yen 1 hour... With an average of ~187 yen/donut it means you have to eat 1 donut every 6 minutes. I'm too old for this shit 🤣 Not worth it for me anymore 😭

I came to bsky for indie game stuff, and somehow my timeline ended being political, again 😭

I miss all the jungle tracks from the PSX1 era. No games featuring that kind of music anymore? They were awesome. The UT99 OST is superb

I’ve been using the logger addon I built recently as a shared module, and it’s been pretty stable and feature-complete so far — so I’ll be releasing v1.0.0 soon! I’ll use this thread to share things I’ve learned about the #Godot ecosystem. github.com/hanpeki/hanp...

I've been playing Cornerpond for a while now and I finally was able to understand the charm of the idle games. I never have time to play anymore cuz I'm developing or busy doing whatever... but having this in the background kind of gives me the sensation that I'm playing nevertheless 😅

Uhm... I'm seeing that using the Globals that #godot provide has a catch (who would have thought, using global variables!) I think I prefer having only ONE global to provide global access, and then have that provide the others as instance members. It helps with memory management and memory leaks...

Hi #indiedev world! How do you test your games? I'm writing a small function to go over all my script actions and evaluate every possible branching option with backtracking... Is it overkill? I don't know, but not having consistency or automatic checks is scary to me!! #gamedev #solodev #godot

If you use the logger in your game and it has a page (Steam, itchio...) tell me and I'll add it to the list of featured users in the main page of the library! Or, feel free to ask for support! I'm happy to help with its usage 😁 (tho, probably is simple enough)

The material bought today for inspiration...

Just released the v1.0.0-rc.2 of the HanpekiLogger I don't think any other logger library in godot has as many features and configuration, and probably not as much love put into it 😉 I want it to become the de-facto standard when using #godot, so feedback is welcome! #gamedev #solodev #indiedev

Seeing that there's no "proper" tool to generate technical documentation from #godot source files (i.e. like doxygen/javadocs/etc.), it's tempting to create my own! Probably will do in the future! But for now, I'll just write the API for the logger lib in markdown

The other day I bought some material for art and style inspiration... Anyone interested? #art #retro #anime #indiedev #gamedev #japan

I've been coding the whole Sunday but, omg sometimes a break for relaxing is needed... ... Ok, 5min done. Back to work 😅 #solodev #indiedev #gamedev

Stepping "aside" of the game dev to focus on this addon is going super well as it's helping me to know the "Godot ways" in Unit Testing, linting, tooling and ICD with GitHub actions. Something I want to integrate for sure on the main repo. I'll keep updating on this but you can just check the repo

Is there any way in #godot to avoid `assert(false)` calls to stop the execution? I'm trying to write unit tests via GUT and I'd like to test invalid input/params ーlike I'd do with "throws()" in JavaScriptー by using `assert_engine_error`, but the engine stopping every time doesn't help...

I'm super silent lately but... I just created a Logger library for #Godot (yep, another one to the list) tailored for my needs and the way I want to use it. Basically, based on Winston for JS, with custom transports and namespaces... github.com/hanpeki/hanp... #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

The level of detail put in Dandadan is a-ma-zing!

It's been a super long month... but we're back in development everyone!!!

Just watched Pirates of the Caribbean 🏴‍☠️ after mmmmpffff years. And yes, now I have the urge to re-play the original Monkey Island... again 🐒

Starting a new job in the middle of crunch time, processing visa paperwork and moving homes, all of that at the same time... maybe was not the best idea. I don't know if I'm gonna survive 😅 Send help!

I installed Linux again on an old small Optiplex to set up a simple server at home for stuff and testing (just a simple debian+xfce)... and damn it's fun playing with Linux. It's been ages since I used it as my main OS 😭

It's been *ages* since I had to touch jumpers for anything. Glad they are still useful.

Went to my previous house to finish the last touches of the moving 📦 and come back to the new place by a nice 40min bicycle ride... 🚲 Only to find out I forgot my bicycle keys... 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ I'm a master of my own art.

My super power is arriving at the train station 20 seconds after the train leaves.

No cheating, post your lock screen.

Sometimes I feel the weight of everything it takes to build the game I have in mind. Every tiny task for every detail I imagine… and there are thousands... Can't but wonder if I’ll ever finish it 😭 But every small step forward feels like a blessing, like a win. #solodev #indiegame #gamedev

By the way, yesterday I spent almost the whole day preparing this first devlog (delayed task from 6months ago 😅) I also created this account to centralize my "official" game announcements. Please check it and see if you could be interested 🙌🙇‍♂️ #indiegamwe #solodev #indiedev

Today's my first day in a new job... Wish me luck. I hope I survive 😅

This project is a hacking simulation game focused on realism and technical depth —inspired by Uplink and Elite Dangerous. In this first video the basics are introduced and the direction of the project is shared If this seems interesting, follow for updates! #gamedev #indiedev youtu.be/3tagY-3WhKA

This is the official account for development updates from Hanpeki Games. Follow along for progress, insights, and occasional peeks behind the curtain. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

You manage to create a great implementation of low-level APIs to manage and interact with the Operating System and its FileSystem... And suddenly, for some random reason, awaits are not awaited... wtf #solodev #gamedev #indiedev #thegoodspartsofJSbookisverythin

I recently found that when a node SOURCE in my world connects to another node TARGET and an intermediate node NX gets offline (because as in the real world, it gets routed through a path of connections like [SOURCE → N1 → N2 → ... →TARGET]), the connection didn't break 😅 #gamedev #solodev #indiedev

Do you have what it takes to be an indie dev? Because, wow, does it take a lot... #gamedev #indiedev #programming #humor

Let's do some starter packs again. I have FIVE packs of solo devs on my profile. bsky.app/starter-pack... bsky.app/starter-pack... bsky.app/starter-pack... bsky.app/starter-pack... bsky.app/starter-pack... Please check if you're on one and don't make me do it before asking. #indiegamedev

Tomorrow it will be 10 years from the release of Undertale. And here I am, doing nothing with my life...

I really really hate how the real state works in Japan. Is... omg, how they milk money, and the tedious of procedures, and the waste of time... Hated my day today (and most of my week)

My game is getting so complex, and there's so much data to persist in an open world... that I'm getting worried about the serialization phase. I wonder how big will the savefiles become... 😰 #gamedev #solodev #indiedev

One thing I implemented from day one — and that surprisingly few games (even AAA) do — is remembering the window position when launching the game. I don't usually play in full-screen, and I really don't want to reposition the window every single time I open your game. #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

I'd like to talk a bit about this a game I made, all done in plain C, using only single header libraries, and it runs in the browser too. It's called "Neon Lies" and it's a retro-futuristic cyberpunk story in a William Gibson style setting.

I'm not 100% content with the look of the selected tabs... but at least is functional, and there are a lot of UI components that will pick automatically the OS-defined visual themes! Just like in the fun Windows 98! 😂 Those were the times... 👴 Oh yes, it's still a #indiedev? #gamedev #solodev

If you hold CTRL, it will pause Task Manager so the processes don't move around when you're sorted by resource usage

After some time out of the country I'm back! Started making a Theme Viewer to see how the different UI elements I'm creating for the OS look with different styles applied. Mostly for development, but I made it as an usable app. #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegamedev #screenshotsaturday

What do you guys include, or expect to see in a devlog? I *really* need to start doing them... and it's my goal for July: to have everything setup to properly start showing new feats every one or another week. #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

I've been out of the country for like 10 days! What have I missed? 😶‍🌫️

Today's one of those days where no matter what code I write, nothing gets finished and there's no sense of achievement... I guess everyone has been there but still... Not a good day 🫠 #solodev #indiegame #gamedev

Welcome home, Jill. #va11halla
